Crossover: Pen name: Dazai Osamu, Omega Kasumigaoka

With the box office success of "Your Name".

Beidouxing Animation's reputation among the second group has soared once again.

Based on the success of the first and second seasons of "Saekano: How to Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai" and "Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai", the anime produced by Hokutosei Animation had already accumulated a considerable reputation among anime fans.

After the box office success of "Your Name".

Anime enthusiasts have already formed the perception that anything produced by Beidouxing Animation is guaranteed to be of high quality.

……

Week 2.

Thanks to its good reputation, it spread by word of mouth.

The box office for "Your Name" skyrocketed, reaching a staggering 4 billion yen.

The total box office reached 5.5 billion yen.

The industry was collectively speechless, stunned by the success of "Your Name".

When it was 1.5 billion, most people could barely accept it.

So what's going on with the current 4 billion?

Is this something a human can do?

How is this done?

Isn't this just an ordinary romance and fantasy animated film?

Is this world even real?!

Then some film and animation studios went crazy and began frantically researching the secrets to the success of "Your Name".

Some forecasting agencies have urgently raised their final box office projections for "Your Name" to 15 billion yen.

……

Week 3.

"Your Name" grossed 4.7 billion yen again.

At this point, the total box office had reached 10.2 billion yen.

The industry and beyond are already numb to it.

I was stunned by the success of "Your Name".

Over these three weeks, "Your Name" was like a giant who had stumbled into Lilliput.

The movies released at the same time, whether animated or live-action, were all unstoppable, with none able to withstand a single blow.

It seemed to have truly transformed into that shooting star in the animation, crushing all its competitors without leaving a single trace.

"Your Name" absorbed 95% of the entire Lunar New Year film market.

The film production companies behind the films released at the same time were crying out in despair.

The success of "Your Name" catapulted director Makoto Shinkai to fame.

He immediately became a highly sought-after new director in the industry.

Several film companies have already contacted Makoto Shinkai, wanting to invest in him.

Given the success of "Your Name," he could easily afford a budget of under 500 million if he asked.

However, Makoto Shinkai always remembered Kitahara Makoto's 'kindness'.

None of them have agreed yet.

Unless Kitahara really doesn't have any projects to give him next.

Only then will he consider taking on projects from these external companies.

The success of "Your Name" not only made Makoto Shinkai famous, but also...

This has also made the Beidouxing Animation brand even more renowned.

Now, the name Beidouxing Animation is subtly shrouded in a golden glow within the entire animation industry.

It has a lot of appeal among anime fans.

……

In its fourth week, "Your Name" grossed another 3.9 billion yen.

The total box office reached 14.1 billion yen.

It became the first film to gross over 10 billion yuan at the box office after the start of the year.

It may also be the only Japanese domestic film to surpass 10 billion yen at the box office this year!

The phenomenal success of "Your Name"

Industry peers have gotten used to it and have given up.

"Your Name" still enjoys a good reputation.

Almost everyone knows that "Your Name" will definitely surpass 10 billion in box office revenue.

I'm just curious how much "Your Name" will ultimately gross.

Is it possible to break the domestic box office record of "Spirited Away" in Japan?

If Kitahara Makoto were to answer, it would be 'no possibility'!

Although "Your Name" surpassed "Spirited Away" at the global box office.

However, it did not surpass "Spirited Away" in domestic box office.

Spirited Away grossed over 310 billion yen.

"Your Name" cost 250 billion yen.

In the end, it was Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba the Movie – Mugen Train that defeated Spirited Away, not Your Name.

Therefore, Kitahara Makoto never held out hope that "Your Name" would beat "Spirited Away" at the domestic box office.

……

……

Xin Chao Society.

In the reception room.

Yamamoto Kazuto had his young and beautiful female assistant bring out his finest tea.

He looked curiously at the new book that Kitahara Makoto had taken out.

Kitahara's visit was quite sudden.

The new book also came out quite suddenly.

I didn't tell him at all beforehand.

Moreover, this new book isn't a romance novel.

This greatly surprised Yamamoto Kazuto.

Has Kitahara Shin changed his ways?

Holding a bellyful of questions.

Kazuto Yamamoto slowly picked up the manuscript from the table.

A line of large characters was written on the pristine white printer paper:

The Miracle of Nami's Goods Shop

The Chinese translation is:

The Miracles of the Namiya General Store!

……

The Miracles of the Namiya General Store.

One of Keigo Higashino's three major representative works, with a Douban rating of 8.6.

Her refreshing and healing writing style has captivated audiences on both sides of the ocean.

Like "White Night Walking," it is also a social mystery.

A magical mailbox connects several mutually healing stories.

The concept is ingenious and the plot is captivating.

In terms of literary technique, it is a rare masterpiece by Keigo Higashino.

When Kazuto Yamamoto first finished reading this book, he found it healing and touching.

However, there were many parts of the story that I didn't understand.

It wasn't until he read it a second time that he gradually understood the various designs in the story.

Then he sighed inwardly.

Kitahara Makoto is still the same Kitahara Makoto.

A book written casually in a short period of time is of this quality, a level that others might not be able to reach even after a lifetime of writing.

The reason why Kazuto Yamamoto is certain that this book was recently written by Makoto Kitahara.

It was because he had never heard Kitahara Makoto mention any plans to write a new mystery book before.

With the release of "Snow Country," the premiere of "Your Name," and various company matters, he simply didn't have time to write a new book.

Therefore, this book was definitely written by Kitahara Makoto recently.

To be able to write a book of this caliber in such a short time.

This can no longer be described as simply being blessed by God.

It's like God is using a funnel to force-feed him food, making him eat it.

"Teacher Kitahara, our Shincho Society will soon arrange to publish this book in our weekly magazine."

"That would be troublesome."

Kitahara Shin blew on the steam rising from the tea.

He's been having nothing to do lately, so he thought he'd write a book to maintain the pretentious image of his pen name, "Two Jujube Trees."

So he casually wrote this book, "The Miracles of the Namiya General Store".

Consider this a way of giving back to the social realism mystery fans who came to read "White Night" early in the morning...

…claw…

Shinchosha prematurely announced the upcoming release of Kitahara Makoto's new book in its second weekly magazine.

Moreover, it was specifically stated that this new book is not light.

It is a social mystery.

This immediately attracted tremendous attention...

.......................................

There's another chapter coming up, I'll try my best to finish it before midnight.

Thank you so much, brothers, for your monthly tickets, flowers, and reviews! The author is deeply grateful.

Chapter 74: Eriri: Here?

The author of 'Two Jujube Trees'.

She is now a well-known author of high-quality business fiction, and this book is a huge hit.

The copyright development of "Saekano: How to Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai" and "Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai" has also been very successful.

This, in turn, greatly increased the fame of the pen name "Two Jujube Trees".

However, as the "two jujube trees" became increasingly successful...

However, a group of people were very unhappy.
